It was a beautiful day in North Plains, Oregon for a round on Witch Hollow at Pumpkin Ridge with The 9900 founders Jason Chambers, Lou Perez, and J Hootman winner of the silent auction item for a golf outing with Jason and Lou. J chose our very own Loni Kroshus to round out the foursome. We would like to thank all that attended the Fuente at The Chamber event and to those that participated in the silent auction. Over $1000 was raised for the Cigar Family Charitable Foundation.

Thank You for Making The Fuente Event Special

The team at the Chamber at 9900 really want to thank each of the patrons for your partnership in our recent Fuente Event. It was truly a special night with a packed house filled with great camaraderie, along with some fine cigars, great drinks, and the incredible courses from Chef Christian and the kitchen team. We want to especially thank Rick Zunt from JC Newman and Russell Livingston sharing their expertise in cigars and wines with us. The raffle items provided some great takeaways, including tickets to the WinCo golf event at Pumpkin Ridge as well as a terrific package to the Beaverton Beer Festival.

We are very proud to report that our silent auction items, which included official Arturo Fuente artwork, a golf outing with Jason and Lou, and a certificate to the Steakhouse at 9900, among others, raised over 1000 dollars for the Cigar Family Charitable Foundation. We all can be very proud of this effort to band together to help the Fuente and Newman families with the incredible needs in the Dominican Republic. Thanks again to everyone who attended and made this possible, and we are excited to use it as a template for many great events ahead!

At The Chamber at 9900, we have embarked on a very exciting journey. Thank you so much for your partnership with us. We wanted to take a moment at the outset to sincerely thank a most gracious and beautiful family in the cigar industry: The Arturo Fuente Cigar Family. We have been most fortunate to have shared in a great relationship for many years, and we seek to use our efforts at The Chamber to honor them and their incredible legacy. The Fuente family and their entire team has been very gracious with us, and it is with utmost humility that we attempt to further their example of integrity, compassion, and excellence in all endeavors in the Pacific Northwest. To honor the Fuente and Newman families, we want to draw attention to the Cigar Family Charitable Foundation, www.cf-cf.org, which provides a significant humanitarian impact on the communities in the Dominican Republic, through health care, education, and nutrition, among other life changing aspects. We invite you to partner with us, raising awareness and support for The Cigar Family Charitable Foundation, and following the lead of the Fuente and Newman families of incredible compassion for the needy. Consider partnering with us at www.cf-cf.org.
